Security Consultant (Supply Chain)
We are seeking a Security Consultant (Supply Chain) to help organisations identify, assess and reduce cyber and information security risks across their third-party and supplier ecosystems. You will work with procurement, technology, risk, legal and business teams to ensure that suppliers are assessed consistently and that appropriate security requirements are embedded throughout the sourcing and contract lifecycle. The role will involve advising stakeholders on practical, risk-based controls while supporting the development of a resilient and well-governed supply chain.
Your responsibilities will include conducting supplier security assessments, reviewing due diligence evidence, analysing risk findings and recommending proportionate remediation actions. You will help define security requirements for tenders, contracts and supplier onboarding, monitor ongoing compliance, and support the management of exceptions and security incidents involving third parties. You will also maintain risk records, produce clear reports for technical and senior audiences, contribute to policies and standards, and help improve processes, methodologies and reporting. Where appropriate, you will support audits, assurance reviews, control testing and engagement with suppliers to validate the effectiveness of their security arrangements.
The successful candidate will have experience in information security, cyber risk, supplier assurance, third-party risk management or a related discipline. You should be confident interpreting security documentation such as ISO 27001 certifications, SOC reports, penetration testing results, business continuity plans and data protection assessments. A strong understanding of risk management, security governance, cloud services and relevant regulatory expectations is desirable. Excellent communication, analytical and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with the ability to manage competing priorities and explain complex issues in clear business language. Professional qualifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor or equivalent experience would be advantageous.
